About Me

A Canadian-born Arsenal FC gal of Malay-Singaporean descent. In love with prog rock music (can't go wrong with MUSE and Radiohead), and anything that makes me laugh... because crying's not fun. A fan of Canadian comics (Jay Malone and Ivan Decker), and the great Canadian past-time of curling! I'm also a fan of good ol' Irish comics Dylan Moran, David O'Doherty and Ed Byrne; and British Comics Chris Addison, David Mitchell, Jack Whitehall and Russel Howard. I enjoy cooking and baking, it helps relieve everyday stress. Doctor Who is probably the best TV series since the 1960s, and Never Mind the Buzzcocks rock my socks! On a rainy day, I waste a good chunk of time reading Marvel comics or banging 'round random instruments (my melodica, Yamaha PSS140, guitar, piano... anything that makes noise). I'm such a kid ^_^

Ahh! Can you believe it's spring? I sure can't, and apparently neither can mother nature. Just this morning, I woke up with a shiver... something was up. I realized that it had snowed the night before, and was continuing to do so in heaps! This is not what I expected, especially with April just around the corner. Oh well, what's a gal to do? Make the most of the winter weather of course, by making some yummy warm tong sui. I followed the recipe found here to make this delicious sweet soup. My mom was woken up by the wonderful aroma of the dried lychee and she couldn't wait to warm up next to the fireplace snuggling a bowl of this delicious treat.
